Nec 2020

The document discusses the relationship between language and thought in children and how they develop language skills. It claims that thinking develops before language in children, as they think before they can pronounce words. It also notes that the way children use language is different than adults, as young children speak in a phonological way and have to develop ways of thinking beyond their current knowledge in order to learn language through a type of pseudo-thought.

NEC 2020

The passage is about the interrelationship between linguistics and mindset and
how children form the thought of language. The author begins by claiming that the
connection between language and thought is crucial but complicated to explain.
These two aspects are disassociated in the early phases of life, as the kid think
before he pronounce words. This leads the author to say that thinking is the
predecessor of language. Next, the way children use the language is discussed.
People who speak phonologically at a tender age hardly apply the adults’ modes.
Moreover, youngsters obtain forms of thought beyond the scope of their
knowledge in order to acquire language, which is a type of pseudo-thought.
